Daon

We’re pleased to announce that Daon has recently earned FSQS Stage 2 registration for suppliers, demonstrating strong compliance to regulations, policies, and governance controls. 

The assessment was performed by Hellios, a supplier information and risk management company that helps organizations save time and reduce risk by pre-vetting vendors. 

Hellios attests that Daon has satisfied all the requirements to become fully registered on the FSQS supplier qualification system.

We’re very pleased to announce that our 3D face liveness solution passed ISO/IEC 30170-3 Presentation Attack Detection (PAD) level 1 testing. 

iBeta, an independent NIST-certified biometric testing laboratory in Colorado, recently conducted the testing, and Daon’s solution was able to detect 100% of the 1,800 face attacks including photos, paper masks, and videos.

Generally, it’s best if blogs cover best practices, industry trends, and helpful tips, rather than focusing exclusively on our tech (or so my marketing team tells me). However, we’re making an exception today to share some details on our solution and how we achieved such noteworthy performance.

Presentation Attacks and Liveness Detection

When people ask if their biometrics could be compromised, the simple answer is no. Your biometrics can’t be compromised, because they aren’t secrets. 

But this simple answer makes a rather large assumption—that your biometric system can reliably differentiate between the real you and some imposter with a picture of your face or a recording of your voice. We call this detecting “liveness,” and not every biometric system can do it well.

We are pleased to announce that we have been named a 2020 Northern Virginia Technology Council Tech 100 honoree for the second year in a row! NVTC's Tech 100 list recognizes companies in the region’s technology community that demonstrate dedication, vision and innovation.
